"The River" lyrics
Driftwood Choir (Ed Prosek & Portair) Lyrics
"The River"
I've been moving backwards
Feels like I've been here before
I hear it calling to me
Another door revolving
Shipwrecked here upon the shore
Will I wake from this dream?
All this weight I carry
From all these versions of myself
Now it's time to come clean
So you jump in the river
Cause you can't live without it
And the tide draws you deeper
And it chews you up and spits you out
So you jump in the river
And it's all unfamiliar
You give in to the water
And it chews you up and shows you how
To float
This is how you learn it's time to let go
Where's this place I'm going?
Who's the face that's looking back?
I see it ripple and change
Are we ordinary?
Are we missing something here?
Oh, it's time to come clean
So you jump in the river
Cause you can't live without it
And the tide draws you deeper
And it chews you up and spits you out
So you jump in the river
And it's all unfamiliar
You give in to the water
And it chews you up and spits you out
So you jump in the river
Cause you can't live without it
And the tide draws you deeper
And it chews you up and spits you out (woah-oh-oh)
So you jump in the river
Cause you can't live without it
(Chews you up and spits you out, woah)
And the tide draws you deeper
(Chews you up and spits you out, woah)
So you jump in the river
And it's all unfamiliar
(Chews you up and spits you out, woah)
You give in to the water
And it chews you up and shows you how
To float
This is how you learn it's time to let go

Sons Of The East - "Head Above The Water" So you think that you might
Slide away in the night
Get away from it all for once

That I'm not alone and you are around

Morningsiders - "How Good It Is" What the hell were we doing
Before we were in love?
Just think of all the wasted time
Just can't get enough
You never knew
How good it is
To be an admirer
How good it is
To feel your fire
How good...
